The main player of the Copinha 2025, Ryan Francisco had a great rise within São Paulo. With ten goals in eight games, the 19-year-old was promoted to the professional team right after the competition, but couldn't maintain a sequence after suffering serious injuries.

In July, Ryan Francisco tore the anterior cruciate ligament and had a meniscus injury in his left knee. Since then, he has been away from the field and is expected to return around April and May.

Another reason for Ryan Francisco not having much continuity was due to the then-coach Luis Zubeldía. With the Argentine, the young player was a starter only twice and did not have a regular frequency coming off the bench.

Contract renewed

Even after the injury, Ryan Francisco is considered one of the club's great promises and renewed his contract with São Paulo until the end of 2029.

For the professional team, he played 16 games and scored three goals. A standout in the Copinha title last January, Ryan Francisco scored ten goals and provided an assist in eight games during the competition.
